MODERN TRENDS IN TRACTION Mr. Ankit Aloni

Abstract— The modern trend in the railway sector is the Maglev trains. Maglev, also called magnetic levitation train or maglev train, a floating vehicle for land transportation that's supported by either electromagnetic attraction or repulsion. The maglev transportation have very benefits such as high level of safety, no derailment, reliability, high speed, ecofriendly, low maintenance fees, energy efficient, the quietest transportation system, less space required, climbing grade and maneuverability, etc. This paper involves all the aspects, design, technology, applications, future uses of these trains. .

The recurrence of the exchanging current is synchronized to coordinate the speed of the train. The balance between the sphere applied by magnets on the train and therefore the applied field makes an influence pushing the train ahead.

They Move significantly quicker than typical trains since they are not influenced by ground grinding; they would just have air opposition or drag obstruction. They are contrary with existing rail lines since they need aseperate track to suspend, dissimilar to the conventional rapid trains. Initially the expense is exceptionally high yet it might diminish in not so distant future
